A projecting two-storey wing was added about 1880 by the Odells. In 1814 and 1837 it was the seat of Joseph Morgan Daly. It was sold in the Encumbered Estates Court in 1850 and bought by a Scotsman George McDonnell who held it in fee at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) when it was valued at £40.
